I feel that if blairite centrism won elections then Jeremy Corbyn would not be leader of the Labour party

Marmaduke! posted:I love that May's response to the Juncker dinner account is to basically go "Nuh-uhh, strong and stable, get the best deal". A bit like when people would accuse the Russians of helping Trump he'd go "No way, there is no need to worry about contact between my guys and the Russians - but the Russians are legit cool and great, and Putin is strong and sexy". Give me the strongest president and the healthiest president

I will be receiving a postal vote in the coming weeks which I assure you will be used to vote labour. I hope you also choose to support Labour with your vote.

LemonDrizzle posted:https://twitter.com/faisalislam/status/859479841116217344 It makes sense when you remember that the whole purpose of holding a general election is for Theresa may to be given a personal mandate as pm. This is very much a vanity thing for her.

spectralent posted:Wasn't expecting to see a labour gain there, but the amount of labour-tory flips already is going to drive me to drink if I'm not careful. I might just stick to campaigning and stop looking at round-by-round polling data. Old people aka the type of person most likely to a) vote in elections b)vote conservative c) vote in local elections with a general election 4 weeks away

What you have to remember is that local elections have worse turnout generally and as that one lady implied people are getting bored of politics and voting because things seem like constant politics rather than being able to rock up once every give years and vote for the same team you always vote for. That's my stream of consciousness thoughts about the local elections. I really hope that Labour will be able to avoid infighting for the next 4 weeks if things go badly.

I think Labour would get less votes if Corbyn stepped down now, given that people like to know who their prime minister would hypothetically be.

WMain00 posted:I think the reality is Labour is going to split, forming into a Socialist Workers Party led by Corbyn and a centralist New Labour party. I wouldn't be surprised if Corbyn didn't resign after the General Election and this occurred instead. As Labour leader Corbyn would keep the Labour name, the splitters would go into the cooperative party probably.
